Intricate Mosaics Of ‘Star Wars’ Characters Made With Multi-Colored Staples

When one thinks of mosaics, it is likely that small, colorful ceramic tiles would come to mind. New York-based artist James Haggerty has come up with an unconventional way to create mosaic artworks—by using thousands of carefully arranged multicolored staples.

With this technique, he has been able to piece together wonderfully detailed portraits of the well-known Star Wars characters Darth Vader, Greedo and C-3PO.
